Eric Gordon to the Phoenix Suns? NBA free agency speculation links NBA free agent to team
Eric Gordon speculation with the Phoenix Suns has become a tradition every time NBA trade rumors or free agent speculation surround the guard.
The tradition continued on social media after ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported Wednesday that the Los Angeles Clippers would not be guaranteeing Gordon's contract, making the shooter a free agent.
NBA Twitter speculated about Gordon's potential fit in Phoenix (again) after the free agency news broke around Gordon, who has been linked to Phoenix multiple times since he signed an offer sheet to play with the Suns in 2012.
Could this be the time Gordon, who has averaged 16 points per game in his career, finally joins the Suns, perhaps on an NBA veteran's minimum contract?

Social media once again links Eric Gordon to the Phoenix Suns:
If Eric Gordon is satisfied with a minimum deal, Phoenix would be a great spot for playing time *and* a chance to finally win a championship.
KD and Booker would love the impact of his spacing. He pulls defenders 30 feet away from the basket. Also a great screener in double drag— Shane Young (@YoungNBA) June 29, 2023
Eric Gordon would be a massive addition for Phoenix.
If they could land ring-chasing vets such as him and Kevin Love along with one of Watanabe/Bates-Diop then they’d be cooking something special.
Not saying he’s their savior or anything, but EG fits this roster like a glove.— Zona (@ZonaHoops_) June 29, 2023

If only the Suns had a scorer who profiles best as a two guard. Gotta bring in Eric Gordon

It would actually be hilarious if Eric Gordon goes to the Suns and they just corner the market on volume-scoring 2 guards.
(They also aren’t getting someone better than him on a min deal!)— Bryan Toporek (@btoporek) June 29, 2023
